The way that the Church has historically helped entire cultures to raise themselves out of destitution is not by giving them cash, but Christ. Let's take a closer look at how this worked and why.

In this week's edition of Let's Talk About This, Father McTeigue exposes how so much of modern charitable efforts inside and outside the Church are not really about helping those who need it, but about photoshoots and media exposure. Father finishes with Weekend Readiness to prepare you for Sunday Mass.

Fr. McTeigue exposes the danger of treating "the poor" as an abstraction — or worse, as objects of pity and curiosity. Learn why true compassion means suffering with, not looking down on, and why real Christian charity must include the soul, not just the body.
